Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Old Delhi, Delhi, India

We start our tour with Old Delhi and travel back in time to the 17th century when the city was called Shahjahanabad. Exquisite architecture and extravagance defined Delhi then and that also reflected in the cuisine that was elaborate and artful and represented the close living of many communities such as the Mughals, Kayashths, Baniyas etc.

Duration: 1 hour 30 minutes

Stop At: Connaught Place, New Delhi India

We now learn how the British rule and years of partition altered the capital's culture fabric and food significantly. We learn about the influences on food during the British rule, the birth of a new cuisine of Anglo Indian food. We discuss the culinary journey of Delhi's food as we enjoy what is definitely India's most beloved beverage, which was popularised by the British.


Duration: 40 minutes

Stop At: Connaught Place/Janpath, Connaught Place/Janpath, New Delhi, National Capital Territory of Delhi

Delhi saw an overnight transformation with the partition with Muslims fleeing the city for Pakistan and arrival of Hindu refugees. Our food walk then continues with the stories of partition in iconic dishes that have today become iconic transcontinental dishes.

We did a walking food tour with Esha in Delhi and it was amazing! She guided us through the organized chaos of Old Delhi, made sure we ate incredible food, and told us all about the history while we enjoyed. 5/5 stars would do this again!!

Nupam is a great guide. She took us to eight special food venues that we never would have found on our own. She explained the history and cooking process for each of the unique Indian dishes and kept a nice pace as we walked through the busy streets of Old Delhi and on a bicycle rickshaw ride. We had Nupam guide us for three days of different themes, and the Food Tour was a highlight. We enjoyed Nupam’s approach and the content she provided, would definitely recommend her to any group or private tour.

What a really great concept of touring Delhi by trying so many different samplers of food at the various restaurants and shops around the Old Delhi area. My guide Nupam was a phenomenal conversationalist throughout the evening and perfectly spaced out the food intake over the multi-hour tour duration in order to comfortably ingest both the gastronomical aspect of the tour and also the site-seeing/culture-learning aspect. Just make sure to come with an open mind and more importantly an empty stomach.

I absolutely recommend this Tour! Nupam is a funny and lovely guide and a real „Foodie“, who will tell you a lot of interesting things about indian cuisine and the various influences from the Moguls and the British. You will get the best indian food in authentic locations of Old Delhi, so make sure to start hungry! Best experience!
